    March NPD sales results: Xbox 360 Growth, Wii and PS3 Decline in March

    I am honestly stunned that GTA: Chinatown Wars wasn't in the Top 10. Not only is that game the best game I've played on the DS but the install base on the DS is HUGE.

    90 % of DS owners in the US are 10 year olds and every person in japan and China have a DS but they dont play GTA........They play Monster Hunter or some other wacky game

      Sony, here's the door, don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out of the business.

      How does a faulty system continually outsell you?

        the only thing I canre about video game sales is that THEY ARE SELLING....this way companies keep making games.

        What system....dont matter.......as long as the industry continues to do well we will keep getting quality games............L4D....for example!

          Because that faulty system has improved there product to make the failure rate very similar to the PS3's. RROD is only a big issue with existing 360 owners.

            I still am a big believer of skewed numbers due to the fact many people end up buying multiple xboxes when theirs shits the bed.

            I also still LOL at people who think Sony is ever gonna exit the console market. How does it outsell? Because in a tough economic time people are going to pick up a cheaper system. I don't get how dumb people are. Xbox360 came to market 1st and 1) has a huge headstart in install base 2) allows them to drop prices quicker to make their system a lot cheaper than sony. Obviously they are going to keep selling.

              Seriously who gives a fuck at this point. I'm sure everyone is happy with what they have. These "console wars" are so queer.

                What a shame. It really is an excellent game.

                      lol good point. Just buy whatever you want and enjoy it, no sense in tryin to make someone else feel bad because of their decision.
